Get answers to common questions about Thai Herbal Heated Compressed Balls.

Heated herbal compresses release steam and therapeutic oils into tissue, warming and loosening tight muscles. Therapists apply rhythmic pressure, combining heat and herb properties to reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and accelerate healing for both acute soreness and chronic tension.

Generally safe for most adults, but not recommended for pregnant women, open wounds, severe varicose veins, or certain skin conditions. Inform your therapist of medical history, medications, or sensitivities so we can adapt treatment, temperature, or suggest alternative therapies.

A single herbal ball application typically lasts 10 to 20 minutes, depending on target area and client comfort. Most clients combine it with a full massage; two balls are recommended for extended coverage, detoxification, or chronic pain management.

Yes — it's offered as an upgrade or add-on. Choose one ball for targeted relief or two balls for broader treatment and detox benefits. We'll adjust heat and placement to your needs, and pricing is $45 for one ball, $65 for two balls.

Herbal blends can have strong aromas. We use high-quality, skin-safe herbs and test temperature and contact. If you have allergies or sensitivities, notify us beforehand; we can use milder blends, perform a patch test, or recommend alternative heat therapies.

Two balls provide wider coverage, deeper heat transfer, and enhanced detoxifying effects — ideal for chronic pain, systemic tension, or full-area treatments. One ball suits localized issues. Your therapist will recommend based on goals, sensitivity, and session length.
